A new wave of Connected Apps is rolling out to Gemini

What changed

Source summary

Google has begun rolling out expanded third-party app connections inside the Gemini app, letting users link tools such as Airtable, Linear, monday.com, PandaDoc, Wispr AI, Zoho, Adobe, Picsart, Squarespace, Webflow, apartments.com, Experian, Peloton and SeatGeek. Users can turn on an integration via Gemini settings or by @-mentioning the app inside a conversation, so Gemini can pull in and act on that app's data without switching tabs.

Why it matters to your work

Practical interpretation

If your team already uses tools like Airtable, monday.com, PandaDoc or Adobe, you can now pull them into a single Gemini conversation instead of switching between apps. For example, you could @-mention Airtable to pull project details into a chat, or bring in a PandaDoc document while drafting something else — handy if you juggle several work apps day to day.

When this could help

Useful when you want to query, update, or create content in a connected app without leaving Gemini — for example, checking a project board, generating a design asset, or looking up a listing.

A new wave of Connected Apps lets you link productivity tools (Airtable, Linear, monday.com, PandaDoc, Wispr AI, Zoho), creative tools (Adobe, Picsart, Squarespace, Webflow), and lifestyle services (apartments.com, Experian, Peloton, SeatGeek) to Gemini and interact with them in-chat.

How to get started

1. Connect apps in Gemini settings, or use them in a chat by typing @ to mention an app or by asking Gemini directly.

SCALA suggested workflow

1. In-chat tool access

   When you need data from a connected tool (a project status from Linear, a document from PandaDoc, a listing from apartments.com), type @ in Gemini and select the app instead of switching to its native interface.
